Mavis is the most awesome dog on earth! There are so many reasons why - her loving disposition (even when her little brother is biting her feet), her cute sour mug, allowing mom and dad to photograph her in her embarrassing costume ... I could go on and on!!
One of the most amazing things about Mavis is that she's survived horrible pneumonia/kennel cough. Our friend, the breeder, sold her to another family at first. But then she got really sick. I don't think her first family realized the special needs of her breed, and so they brought her back. Mavis nearly died, but my friend and his family nursed her back to health. However, their vet said that she probably would never fully recover, and might always have respiratory problems. My friend told us about Mavis, and how he wanted to find a good home for her, with a family that would be sensitive to her health.
So of course we took her in, and love and care for her the best we can. She's lived with us for a year, and I'm happy to say that she doesn't even have breathing problems anymore, except for the occasional allergy-sniffles. I'm so proud of her accomplishments! She's my best friend. :-)
